This is an actual surviving classic Bollywood movie poster of the 2001 political drama that starred Anil Kapoor (of Slumdog Millionaire fame) in the lead role.

Nayak is a critically acclaimed film that has developed a cult following over the years, making this Anil Kapoor movie poster highly collectible!

In the film, Anil Kapoor plays a powerful character of a journalist who becomes the chief minister for a day. The name of his character, “Shivaji Rao” was taken from Tamil Superstar Rajinikanth’s real name.

Printed and circulated during the original first release of the film somewhere in 2001, this Nayak movie poster was printed for publicity of the film but never ended up being used.

The lead star of the film, Anil Kapoor is seen in a heroic pose with his fist in the air on the top. An action sequence from the film is depicted at the bottom of this glossy Nayak movie poster.

Classic Bollywood film poster of the blockbuster old Hindi movie Karan Arjun (1995) for sale.

This is an actual surviving old Bollywood poster of the 1995 classic Hindi film that featured two of the biggest superstars of Bollywood Shahrukh Khan and Salman Khan together on screen.

Karan Arjun was the second biggest hit of 1995 after Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge and starred the King Khans of Bollywood together, making this classic Bollywood poster highly collectible!

Printed and circulated during the initial first release of the film (somewhere in the mid 1990s), this Karan Arjun movie poster was originally designed for publicity of the film but never ended up being used.

This Karan Arjun movie poster shows Salman Khan in his classic bare chested pose without his shirt and flexing his muscles. A large close up of actor Shahrukh Khan is seen alongside. The reincarnation based theme of the film is given away with a summary on the top of this Karan Arjun movie poster that reads, “And They Returned to Take Revenge.”

Karan Arjun was directed by Rakesh Roshan and featured Raakhee, Amrish Puri, Kajol, Mamta Kulkarni and Johny Lever in prominent roles in addition to the two King Khans who played the lead roles in the film. Actor Hrithik Roshan was the assistant director of Karan Arjun – his first major contribution to Bollywood.

The music and background score was composed by Rajesh Roshan. Songs from the film such as “Jaati Hoon Mein Jaldi Hai Kya” and “Yeh Bandhan to Pyar Ka Bandhan Hai” became instant hits and are still played today.

Old Bollywood movie poster for sale of the classic Hindi film Parivaar 1987.

This is an actual surviving old Bollywood poster for sale of the 1987 Hindi film that starred Mithun Chakraborty and Meenakshi Sheshadri in lead roles.

The film also featured two animal stars, wonder dog Jaani and monkey Savithri!

Printed and circulated during the initial release run of the film (somewhere in the late 1980s), this Mithun Chakraborty movie poster was designed for publicity of the film but never ended up being used.

This Mithun movie poster was originally hand painted on canvas by a leading poster design studio in Bombay.

Interestingly, instead of using portraits of the stars, the Bollywood poster artist has chosen to highlight the two animal actors from the film.

Monkey Savithri who plays the role of Bajrangi in the film is seen riding on top of wonder dog Jaani who played the role of Bahadur. The monkey is seen flashing a victory sign in this obscure Bollywood poster.

This is an extremely rare instance in Indian cinematic history where two animal actors have been chosen as the stars of the Bollywood poster, making this obscure Bollywood poster highly collectible!

The hero of the film, Mithun Chakraborty finds mention in this old Bollywood poster only in text at the bottom. The title of the film is seen in stunning 3D typography, with an announcement on the top that declares the film as Super Hit.
